"Inge Lotz was betrayed"

[Azbubu]

Cape Town – Murdered Stellenbosch student Inge Lotz, 22, was killed by someone close to her and was betrayed by her friends.

This startling revelation has been made by investigative journalist Michael Day, reported Rapport.

Day has been working with ex-top cop Piet Byleveld, who was appointed by Lotz’s father to help solve the murder that made headlines since the student’s body was found in her flat seven years ago.

Day said all the answers to the mystery were locked within Lotz’s circle of friends, some of whom had climbed the ladder of success since her murder.

Day said these so-called friends refused to talk or reveal what they knew of the brutal murder because they believed they were above the law.

They pretended to be her friends but really hated her, said Day.

Hatred was also the motive for her murder, he said.

Lawyer Johan Jordaan who represented Inge Lotz’s parents said Day was the one person who had worked closely with Byleveld to solve the murder.

“Michael Day and Piet Byleveld are a team. Piet is the master detective, Michael the background man who sits with astonishing information after years of research. Yes, they share information,” said Jordaan.

Day will release his book on the murder next year. Its working title was Betrayed – The Inge Lotz Story: Her Life, Her Death, and the Hunt for Her Killer.

So are the days of our lives ... just waiting for the 1000 episode soapie based on the book

Just like "a Third Force" when you can't pin the blame on anyone and you want to save face.

Byleveld said something similar a while ago already. He clearly suspects someone in her circle of friends. My money would be on one of Fred van der Vyver's friends.

The police botched up the crime scene.

It could be the bf, a friend or a bergie. We will never know.

The boyfriend was charged with murder and found not guilty.

OJ Simpson was charged with murder and found not guilty.

Do yourself a favour and read the book written on the case by Anthony Altbeker, or better yet read the court records. It is clear as daylight that he could not have done it.

OJ Simpson was charged with murder and found not guilty.

You cannot compare... In the OJ case, the evidence was there, but not submissible. There was no evidence against Fred.

I at some stage thought Fred was guilty, but he wasn't.

Was it his son?

Was it his son?

Whose son ? Huh ?

Whose son ? Huh ?

OJ's son.

Looking at your original quote and post, it sounds like you say that OJ could not have done it.

I know you were talking about Fred, but less intelligent people (like abzo) might struggle to understand what you meant

 

[Garson007]

While I was never in that circle, some people I know who knew the bf still suspect him.

Point is the police botched up in their over eagerness to convict someone without having evidence.
We are not anywhere closer to who did it. I am not saying it is Fred. It could be anyone.

PS. there is no evidence of Malema and Zuma unfairly influencing tenders but that doesn't mean they're not guilty

 

[blunomore]

While I was never in that circle, some people I know who knew the bf still suspect him.

Again: if you read the facts of the case, it was impossible for him to have done it:
- There are witnesses placing him at his office for the entire day of the murder.
- Cellphone triangulation confirms this.
- The security system at his office apparently showed that he did not leave the building.

But seriously I really hope the truth comes out soon. I really feel for her family and true friends. I also think it was someone close to her.

 

[blunomore]

I also think it was someone close to her.

The nature of the crime (apparently it was quite a savage killing) indicates that the killer knew her, i.e. it was personal. Someone with a lot of anger/hatred committed the crime. If it was a mere opportunistic killing, there would not have been so much violence, only enough to silence her.
